I told you it was soup season around here. This is my second soup of the week. This one was for a football game day. I was able to put it on the stove on low and it was ready whenever I was ready for a bowl. The only thing I regret was I did not have any milk to make some Mexican cornbread to go with it. Next time.
That is good eating. Some extra onions and cheese makes it very good.
The only thing that takes some time is opening all these cans.
Chop your onion. Use as much or as little as you like. I will save some of this to add to the top when serving. I usually try to have sweet onions. I like the flavor of them best. I know some people like to use shallots for their mild flavor.
Add the onions to the pot with some olive oil to sauté the just a little bit.
Add the ground been and brown it. Break it up into small pieces. I drain the fat off. There’s usually not a lot with this ground beef. If you have a Fresh Market close to you check out and see if they have their Tuesday specials on ground beef and chicken. They have them both for $3.99 (use to be 2.99) a lb. They are individually wrapped by right at 1 lb packages and the chicken are usually 2 breast. They are both really good. I keep them in my freezer. It’s probably time to go back this week and get some more.
After the meat is browned add 1 1/2 cups water.
Add the water to the pot.
Add the packet of taco seasoning. I like the Taco Bell but use whatever kind you like.
I always add a little more chili powder too.
